Your task is to create ‘a special atmosphere’ and win the trust of a potential customer. Do not make the video like ‘buy, buy, buy’. It should be really useful information for the target audience.

That's what happened with GeniusMarketing channel. Many of their customers buy products after studying the video for some time on their channel.

2. Product Promotion via video.

At the end of the video do not forget the call to action and a link where people can go and buy a product. As it works with any product. Display the first 2 videos of your training. Of course, such selling video stream should be useful with a free content.

3. Sale of products for the affiliate program.

Acting as a browser or a third-party expert, you can sell products of other companies or experts on affiliate programs, while receiving your commission. Doing such reviews, once you kill three birds with one stone – you are increasing its expertise, increasing its popularity due to figuring more famous names and making money.

4. Making your own show

Do you like to tell stories? YouTube allows people to create their own web show. You are limited only by your imagination and budget. You can create a series of training, comedy, educational reality show. Remember that YouTube limits videos to 15 minutes long. To upload longer videos, you'll need to increase your limit.
